The Offseason - '98 Lyrics

i used to have better days
they haven't happened since '98
and i've done my best to live with the torment
but these are my weights that i'm forced to carry

i refuse to believe
i can't do anything with these clipped wings
'cause life is boring
stuck in this birdcage

can someone take this burden away?
i want to leave this disease behind me
and it's made its mark on this hospital heart
and ripped all my freedom apart (ripped all my freedom apart)

i refuse to believe
i can't do anything with these clipped wings
but when will my time come
to lose these limitations and be someone?
'cause life is boring
stuck in this birdcage

everyone i know
has it better than they think they do

(this will never end)
this is the only fight that i may never win
waking every night in cold sweats with unsteady hands (this will never end)
but that won't change the fact that i've got bigger plans
and i won't let this keep me down
i just have to work this out
there's no better time than now.
don't count me out

i refuse to believe
i can't do anything with these clipped wings
but when will my time come
to lose these limitations and be someone?
'cause life is boring
stuck in this birdcage
